What does this selection do ?
This selection allows you to measure your heart
rate continuously as well as mark split/lap
times. In addition, in this mode you will be able
to follow concretely whether you are exercising
in, above or below your pre-programmed target
heart rate zone. Also, as we learned before, you
can choose between cumulative time of exer-
cise and time of day functions on display in this
mode. No programming can be done in this se-
lection, but you can, however, start and stop
the sport watch and the recording as many
times as you want during the exercise (stop-
ping in traffic lights etc.).
